This iteration of Zenne y Frontera is a Josefa Pérez Oloroso Blend.
In January 2020, we went to the sherry region in the south of Spain to source our own sherry barrels for future Zenne y Frontera projects. And that is how we found the bodega of Josefa Pérez Rosado. In a small barrel room, just behind the Iglesia de Santiago, right in the heart of the village of Jerez de la Frontera, we had the honour to meet and talk with the family Pérez. Only one fifth of the barrels was left, as the bodega had ceased operations. From those remaining barrels, we tasted and selected the best ones for our barrel room.
For this Zenne y Frontera, we blended lambikken from five Oloroso barrels and bottled them straight. The average age of this blend was 26 months upon bottling.

Dark gold amber with sparse head that quickly recedes to a collar. Sherry, oak, and funk. Moderate and tart mouthfeel.
